WC mascot/logo

i hadnt noticed the WC mascot, the friendly dragon ... but its pretty cool and fun :
http://www.escrime2001.com/

the mascot takes different attitudes all over the website of the WC, and i think its a real nice logo instead of the "abstract" ****s u can find in many other events...

the webpage is great too...

i ll go to Nimes for men foil teams (31/10), i hope the organization will be as good as the mascot design... but for sure being in such a city, Nimes, is a great advantage, with finals in arenas ....

i ll report after WC

Hmm...looks like they're shilling for FreeBSD. Are they using those for their servers or something?

Good thing, too...you wouldn't want their servers to get [h/cr]acked, would you?

Oops. Isn't the FreeBSD logo the daemon guy with the pitchfork? Which OS uses the dragon logo?

It's not an OS. KDE's mascot is a dragon, if that's the one you're thinking about.

I want one!!!

The dragon is really cool - if he was red he could almost be a welsh dragon.

That's right. Well, at least they didn't choose the Gnome footprint for a logo.

Or a partially chewed upon apple.
